Applying For Financial Aid
To apply for financial aid, parents must first register for classes. Once that’s done, create an account with FACTS, our financial aid platform. From there you can fill out the necessary income information, upload W2 forms, and the prior year’s tax information.
Once applications are submitted, and all required documents are received by FACTS from families, a business review will be conducted. This takes approximately 2-3 weeks to complete.
Awards are income-based, and if an applicant is eligible for financial assistance, the applicant will receive an award amount via FACTS management for the designated year in which the financial aid should be applied. Applicants will receive an award letter through FACTS that they must sign electronically by checking a box. After that, the award amount will be applied to your remaining balance (after the initial deposit is paid).
